A Record Of Service
Forty-four years as member of any parliament, even in the inconspic-
uous role of a back-bencher, would be an impressive record of service and
endurance. It would indicate, at the very least, a tremendous capacity to
resist boredom and endure platitude.
Forty-four years’as member of the British parliament, where the M.P.’s
job is pretty much .a full-time affair, is almost a transcendant feat, for, at
Westminster, oratorical standards differ but little from those of parliaments
and legislatures nearer home.
Forty-four years as member of the British parliament, thirty of them in
the very forefront of polemical politics, twenty of them in the role of an
imperial‘as well as a national figure, and, at least ten of them as a world
luminary, represents something, however, which cannot be judged by ordin-
ary criteria.
Forty-four years as membe@r of the British parliament, during eighteen
or so a member of the cabinet and six of them spent as wart-time premier,
the dynamit centre of a whirling world—that is the consummate achievement
which fell to the lot of a little Welsh lawyer.
David Lloyd George: Perhaps it was unnecessary to mention the name
for, were it posed to any group of intelligent citizens within the British
empire, it is doubtful if the juxtaposition of “forty-four years” with ‘“war-
time premier” in the question, would fail to elicit the right answer.
David Lloyd-George has just celebrated his forty-fourth year as member
of the British parliament. In that long term, the little Welsh lawyer who
entered the portals of the “Mother of Parliaments” with none of that politi-
cal background which, prior to his advent, was deemed essential to mini-
sterial rank, has run the full gamut of political achievement; has scaled
the dizzy heights and been dashed from them; has tasted the sweet fruits
of popular acclaim and the bitter of obloquy. Spectacular always, in suc-
cess as in defeat, his ig perhaps the most amazing personality in its very
contradictions of a generation replete with outstanding figures.
To-day, in the quieter nooks of political life, the old fires burn dim—
but they still burn. The flash of those “Limehouse” days which added a
word to the English language is recalled, ever and anon, as he asseverates
warnings and behests a heedless world heeds not. From the couch of the
prophet, or the desk of the mentor, he sallies, occasionally, to guide and to
counsel those who, caught in the full flood of the stream, pay little atten-
tion to what adumbrates the stiller eddies of the backwaters. In sickness
or in health, one word of contumely brings the old fires forth. Jove still
can thunder—objurgations! ‘
His attendance at sittings of parliaments: is rarer than it used to be,
but a strange reaction follows his periodic entries. Be the debate never so
dull, when Lloyd George appears members rouse themselves from lethargy
and prepare for action. Imperceptibly, a ripple animates the hopise; elec-
tricity is in the air. Lloyd-George has entered! Surely here, despite the fact
a whirling world has thrown him from the vortex, is anything but a spent
force.
Two or three wecks ago, he célebrated the forty-fourth anniversary of’
his election to parliament. If he were asked what is his fondest recollection
over all those years, undoubtedly, his answer would be: it had been given
him to retain the respect, the loyalty, the confidence and the affection of
his own constituency of Carnarvon. That is; perhaps, the most amazing
feature of his amazing record. For forty-four years he has, enjoyed the
unbroken loyalty of his constituents. For forty-four years he has enjoyed
their confidence, their respect and their affection, Surely no man could
ask more. That is the mead of his service and the gatge of his success.
The Safety Of Surgery Worth Fabulous Sum

“The operating table is safer than

noted British surgeon.
Not long ago another surgeon,
Lord Moynihan, declared that the
technique of surgery is so perfect
nowadays that he did not see any
way in which it could be improved.
We sometimes read that So-and-So

ig somewhat unfortunate, because it
carries the suggestion that the opera-
tion had something to do with the
cause of death. It is not the opera-

ease or injury which made the opera-
tion necessary. The operation was
the only chance of ‘saving the pa-
tient’s life, and either the operation
had been delayed too late, or the in-

Works With Steel Hands
Remarkable Story Of Courage Dis-
played By Crippled Boy
Tn a little repair shop at. Meaford,
Ont., a man works day after day with
steel hands. He has worked with
them for 30 years, ever since he arid
his blind father made them to re-
place hands anti forearms’ of flesh
and bone he lost as a boy when he
fell against the whirling blade 6f a
buzz saw,
Andrew A. Gawtley, “the man With
the steel hands,” was only 17 wheti
a mémentary slip, deprived him of
his forearms, For months he lay in
hospital, but when he came’ out he
was determined to earn his own }iv-
ing. There was one man at lweart
he believed more unfortunate than
himself. Hig father had been lind
for 50 years.
Father and son labored long de-
signing and making new -hands fcr
the boy. When they were finished
they had five grips of different sizes
and different degrees of leverage.
Two grips open as Gawley draws his
hands towards his body; ‘the others
open when the arms are extended.
Gawley can crush a stone be-
tween his “fingers,” hold a ‘teacup
with perfect control, shave himself,
dress himself, tie knots in a rope,
throw or catch a baseball. He can
thread a needle, drive an automobile,
ride a motorcycle. He has been
known to lift more than 250 pounds
dead weight with one “hand.” Gaw-
ley writes with a neat hand.
He was born near Stokes Bay on
Bruce Peninsula and in his youth
was a star of Stokes Bay football
team. He is 49 years old now, still
making his own living, handling tools
with the skill of a master craftsman
and making, among other things,
artificial limbs for persons afflicted
like himself.
- Figures Hard To Grasp
Value Of Canada’s Gold Production
Runs Into Millions
What a part gold has played in
the -world’s story! The. civilizations
‘of Egypt and of Assyria; the king-
dom of Solomon; the glory of Spain;
the gold-lure of quests for far Ca-
thay; the California and Klondike
epics—all are part of the romance
of history, of man’s eternal grasping
for wealth. “Now after thousands of
years, Canada emerges as one of the
great gold countries—the . second
greatest in the world—and Mr. Mc-
Crea, a Canadian minister, can tell
stories of gold that stagger the
imagination. It is a tremendous
thing.
Thirty years ago Ontario's pro-
duction of all metals—gold included
—was $5,000,000. Last year its gold
production alone was $501,000,000.
On top of that we are producing
nickel at the rate of $20,000,000 a
year, copper at the rate of $9,000,-
000. In the last four years $190,000,-
000 worth of gold has been taken
from Porcupine and Kirkland Lake.
More than $153,000,000 was paid out
in gold dividends.
These, truly, are figures for pes-
simists.—Ottawa Journal.

Tortoise On New Coin
Just why @ tortoise should be de-
picted on a coin im these times of

jectured by those who have seen the

cents. The only explanation is that
the tortoise lives in the mountain
country of Fiji. The shilling, valued
at about 25 cents, shows a speedy |

Available statistics indicate some
decrease in. hog production last year
but the numbers of hogs marketed
at public stockyards and packing
plants somewhat exceeded those of

With the attention that is being
given to the grading of dressed
poultry and eggs during the past few
years in Canada, a big increase in
the Canadian export trade is fore-
cast.
The financial inability of farmers
fn the past four years to pay the
usual prices for registered seed grain
has resulted in reducing. slightly the
volume of production of registered
seed, particularly in the prairie prov-
inces.
Of the oats produced in Canada,
approximately 7 per cent. is used in-
dustrially by Canadian mills, while
the -bulk is utilized on Canadian
farms for feeding purposes. During

of the total annual production has
been exported as grain.

says “Scientific Agriculture’ it has
been custofnary to recognize Dean
Howes of Edmonton as the “Dean of

the heads of agricultural colleges in)
Canada, both in age and in years of

some of our technical agriculturists

acies of scientific investigations, Dean
Howes always keeps before us the
needs and the aspirations of that
sometimes-forgotten man, the farmer.
The address is an epitome of rare
agricultural wisdom embracing as it
does the whole gamut of agriculture
in actual practice, economics, and
philosophy. Speaking of production
anid marketing the Dean said “How
often one has heard during the past
few years the statement ‘we have
solved the problems of production
but we have paid little or no atten-
tion to the problems of marketing’.
Every time I have had the oppor-
tunity, I have raised by voice in pro-
test against this.sweeping statement,
simply because it is not according to
fact. That we have not paid enough
attention to the machinery of mar-
keting, I.am quite ready to agree;
also that one of our major enter-
prises should always be the proper}.
distribution of our products; ‘but
when people say that we have solved
the problems of production, I must},
take exception ‘in no uncertain terms.
The fact of the matter is that we, in
this far-flung country. of ours, are
mere children in the matter of-pro-
duction. If there has been over-pro-
duction quite recently, and that is
still regarded as‘ debatable, it is ab-|
solutely no proof that we have solved
the problems. of production,’ More-
over, it must not be forgotten that
production is an integral part of a
sound marketing system and cannot
be divorced. They are as inseparable
as Mutt and Jeff, or ham and eggs,—
indeed more so.” .

has become a popular classic, It is
really the best of all post card notes
for ‘it involves no mental effort.
Wiseécracks and smart-Aleo, messages
are less meritorious for they carry
no joy to the recipient, and if they
have ever half a germ of originality
they involve a certain amount of
brain fatigue for the sender.
On the whole though, the world
would be duller without Adolph's
picture cards, Everyone likes to
know where his traveling friends are

also true that in this matter he who
gives is more blessed than the one
who receives, for it affords the sen-
der a chance to brag.
Flying Fish Just Glide

the spurt is ended On a flat, wind-
less ‘sea the traveling is not so good
as when the fish, operating against
the pressure of moving atmosphere,
rises and falls from crest peak to
wave hollows, thus elongating the
tour. The life of the flying fish is
just one thing after another; he
escapes one énemy to fall into the
jaws of another, and is also highly
prized as a delicacy among the
sengers. On low waisted ships, where
the rail is close to the waterline, it
is customary to set a jacklight after
dark. In rough weather the- fish

luminosity, leaps on board and is

Hawaiian Islands, where flying fish
run up to a pound or. two, and fise

they are hunted with shotguns. It
requires a good man to drop doubles.
Should Act As Bracer
People At Fifty “Right In Pink”
States Doctor
A cheery message for men of 50
is that which comes from Dr, James
Cutton co-founder of two Toronto
‘hospitals. He says a man of fifty
“ig right in the pink.” And he adds
that age does ‘not mean years in re-
spect to the body. “Some men are
old at fifteen; others young at
eighty,” he says--and he declares
that a man of fifty, because of his
stabilized physique, can endure more
than a boy. Perhaps there is not
much new in the good doctor's state-
ment but it is a fact that many men
of fifty become depressed at the fear
that they are growing old. His words
should act as a bracer for them.

of this Western country. One of the
powerful enemies of wheat hag been
met and conquered, Dr. H. M. Tory,
,.of the Dominion Research Council,
states that since 1916 the loss from
this pargsite has been $600,000,000.
This is in money, $20,000,000 a year.
What it has meant in blasted hopes,
and beaten men cannot be computed.
Rust has éome upon wheat at its
flowering time and has flourished
best among the thick standing crop.
It has swept down in the hot nights
of July, especially when the rain has
washed the heavens plue and made a
picture past praising of the golden
waving grain and the soft silver air.
Sucking the sap from the stock it
has left it standing a mockery of
emptiness. “The rust hag struck"—
that sentence will no more dash the
light from eyes and the strength
from blithely swinging arms.
Teh years ago the Dominion Rust
Research Laboratory at the site of
the University of Manitoba began
this investigation. It got its founda-
tion wheat from Minnésota, and at
the Fort Garry site and the Bran-
don Experimental farm, commenced
its breeding experiments. When vic-
tory dawned in the laboratory, there
followed milling and baking tests in
which the Universities of Alberta,
Saskatchewan antl Manitoba and the
laboratories. of the Dominion Board
of. Grain Commissioners were called
into help.
The careful men of science now
state that a wheat has been develop-
ed which ig practically as good as
the Marquis and Reward. All tests
so far have been within the orbit of
laboratories. This season will see
these tests widened to include com-
mercial concerns. The new wheat
will not be distributed until it is cer-
tain that it can “take it” with the
farmer as well as under the sheltered
conditions of the experiments. How-
ever, it has been discovered that as
well ag being resistant to rust, the
new Variety is also better able to
withstand other diseases such as
smut than are the varieties now in
the field,
Incidently it should not be forgot-
ists, the scientists of the Rust Re-
search Laboratory and of the prairie
universities are open to congratula-
tions, Their victory is not only of
enormous practical value but it is
Victory in the world of knowledge
and an outstanding one, both on ac-
count of the numbers in other places
on the continent who are engaged in
this research, but also because of the
“players” and of the devotion for
“the side.” The total cost of the
whole thing is given as $250,000. As
a matter of fact, this does not in-

Terrors Of Sargasso Sea
Investigator Has Found. Seamen's
Story Has No Foundation ,
After several months’ investigation
in the Sargasso Sea, an expert from
the Natural History Museum, South
Kensington, returned with tangible
evidence that there are no terrors
in that dread part of the Atlantic.
Exhibits were brought back to show
that the seamen's traditional story
of the Sargasso's impenetarable mass
of floating material through which
no ship could make its, way, has no
foundation in scientifie fact. The
investigator, on his return to Eny-
land, said the exhibit } would prove
once and for all to the ordinary
mind that the Sargasso fantasy was
pure imagination.. There are, he
stated, vast stretches of floating
vegetation extending in green and
yellow patches as far as the eye can
pee, but never thick enough to pre-
vent the promyges of a ship,

“THE SCHOOL FESTIVAL’
The school festival, which has
now become an annual affair
for this inspectorate, has grown
te such propoctions -that this
year’s event hela in Medicine
Hat last Friday, showed clearly
that some changes and improve-|
ments must be made in its man-|.
agement, if the festival is to|’
continue to grow and retain its
interest in-the community.
‘The fact that this movement
has taken such a grip upon the
schools and general public of| -:
the community, together witn
the excellent training our child-
ren are getting. through it, 1s
ample encouragement and incen-
tive for all concerned to see that
everything is done to make the
festival an even greater succass.
That the festival has out-
grown its present arrangements
was clearly demonstrated last
Friday when it took from nine
o'clock in the morning until mid-
night to carry the day’s pro-
gram through. For this, Com-
mittee in charge should not be
blamed as the interest in the
movement has developed and
grown much more rapidly than
its members anticipated. How-
ever this should not prevent
them from making more elabor-
ate preparations for next year.
Unless arrangements can be
“made to expedite mattets it
might’ be advisable to make the
festival a two day affair. An-
, other suggestion is that the in-
tovate be devided:.into dis-
tricts of three or four -schools
each, in which elimination ‘con-|_
tests be held and. the winners
“of the several districts meet for
the final ‘contest at’ the festival. :

One very’ noticeable~ feature
of the School Festival “held in
Medicine Hat last Friday was
the intense interest shown | in

most every man and woman,|.
youth and damsel in town, and
what was true of Redcliff was},
“true of every other school tak-

It is so seldom one witnespes
such whole hearted enthusiasm
over anything now-a-days that
the display of it from all quar-
ters on this occasion: was a reai
treat. Congratulations and
praise, which one sometimes
feels are things of the dim. and
distant past. were heard on all
sides. With such enthusiasm
and encouragement any com-
munity enterprise igs assured
success.
No doubt the School Festival
meant a lot of extra work for
both teachers and pupils but the
Review is sure both have been
amply repaid for it. Sofar as

world, and, by furnishing navigable
routes into the heart of .the conti-
upon the

But Canada has many other lakes,
the magnitude of which is not gener-
ally appreciated. For example, Lake
Winnipeg, in Manitoba, is ~ almost
2,000 square miles larger than Lake
Ontario, .one of the “great” lakes.
Great Bear Lake, in the Northwest
Territories, which has come into
prominence because of valuable min-
eral discoveries, is 1,720 square miles
larger than Lake Erie, and 4,120
equare miles larger than Lake. On-
tario, Great Slave Lake is almost
as large as Great Bear; the two
combined are larger than either Lake
Huron or Lake Michigan.
.from the “great’’ lakes, there
are twelve others in Canada’ with
areas ranging from 1,127 square
miles for the smallest to 11,660

Good Story
The New Yorker says there are
several little stories-nbout the Yous-
Sprouting Of The Seed Tubers
Beforo Planting
In order to produce early potatoes
the sprouting of the seed tubers has
becn employed with varying results,
but most of those employing sprout-
ed-seed agree that some gain has
been made. The sprouting should
be done in, diffused light and , under
conditions where the temperaturé can
be maintained. around 50 to 55 de
grees F. The growth should be slow,
so.as to develop sturdy stout buds.
As a rule seed potatoes sprouted it
the open become withered badly be-
fore planting time arrives, An experi-
ment tas been tried at the Central
Experimental Farm whereby the
seed tubers are placed in flats or
shallow boxes and sand filled in
around the tubers. These flats are
fitted with four blocks, one in each
corner, one inch square and project-
ing two inches above the edge of the
box. These blocks facilitate the
stacking of the boxes one on top of
the other, allowing light to enter and
permitting the application of water
when desired.
Water is applied to the sand at
intervalg as required by means of a
watering can with a piece of half-
inch hose attached to the sprout.
The boxes may be stacked in the
corner of the kitchen or even in a
warm cow barn. Four to five weeks
will produce well sprouted and rooted
material, that when planted out of
doors will start growth at once, when
the soll warms up. Plant to a depth
of 4 inches and cover the top of the
buds with about a half inch-of soil.
Potatoes sprouted in this way will
come through the sprouting process
perfectly firm.
The sand sprouted tubers out-
yielded those sprouted by other
methods by many pounds.
One of the drawbacks with the
tubers sprouted in the sand and fully
rooted is that they must be dropped
in the rows by hand. The increased
earliness and larger yield’ compen-
sates for this.
Danger Is Negligible
History Shows Only Two Men Ever
Hit By Meteorites
Meteorites are continually whizzing
through the outer space surrounding
the earth and occasionally crashing
to the ground. Chances of being
struck by one, however, ate practic+

H. H. Nininger of the Colorado
Museum of Natural History declated
in a recent book that only two men
in history. have been injured by
‘meteorites. One’ was struck down
and injured at Mhow, India,-in 1827;
the other was stunned by a meteorite
at Nedogolla, also in India.
Chances of a meteorite striking a
home or causing any considerable
meteorite, was only the eighth or
ninth such instance on record.
Perhaps the most destructive
meteorite to strike the earth, accord-
ing to Nininger, was the one that
landed in a forest in Siberia on June
80, 1908. It felled trees in windrows
and scorched them.
Nininger has made the study of
meteorites his life work. He is said
to be the only man in the world who

: To General Idea
Increase In Heart Disease Not Due
To Modern Living
Big business and “the strain of
the twentieth century” are not re-
sponsible for the increase in heart
disease during the last two decades,
according ‘to Dr, Robert\L. Levy, as-
sociate professor of clinical medicine
at Columbia university, who dis-
closes that in a survey of cases at
the Columbia-Presbyterian medical
centre the largest per centage of
heart trouble resulting from disease
of the coronary arteries. was found
laborers had the. highest per centage
of heart trouble, while-in the Colum-
bia study, manual laborers ranked
third and clerical workers fourth.
“The most ‘significant reason for
the increase in. heart, disease,” Dr. |'
Levy reports, “is the effective con-
trol of infectious disease, such as
tuberculosis, typhoid fever and’ diph-
theria.. Fewer people succumb to in-
fections, but they escape only to die
at a riper age of the degenerative
diseases which are associated with
disorders of the circulation..
“Fifty-nine years is now the aver-
age expectation of life for the wage-
earning ‘population, while two de-
cades ago it was but forty-seven
years. There is no doubt that heart
disease is increasing; it is to-day the
leading cause of death. But the im-
portant point is that the increase is
occurring almost entirely in persons
over forty-five years of age. Since
people must of necessity die, and
fewer are carried off by infections,
the result is that they die of the dis-
orders incident to advancing years,
of which heart disease is the most
common. ’

Life-Saving Treatment
New Method For Dealing With
Pneumonia Is Advanced
A new life-saving treatment for
pneumonia, which works by making
the disease temporarily “worse” and
warning that many dangerous dis-’
eases are not cured when they seem
to be, were presented to the Ameri-

The pneumonia treatment, used to
cure lobar pneumonia, brings on an

Stories About Hudson’s Bay Com-
pany Would Make Thrilling Novel
It surely is not unpatriotic to say
that one of the most cheerful items
in the story of business revival has
to do with a foreign corporation. For
the year 1933 the Hudson’s Bay Com-
pany reports a modest profit of
$160,000 after registering an aver-
age annual loss of about $1,500,000
in the preceding three years.
What business is. the Hudson's
Bay Company engaged in? It is
to-day the world’s largest purveyor
of romance.* On the side it trades
in furs and sells land for settlement,

ve |Grain Stocks Lower
Total Stocks In Canada Reducod
During Past Year
Total stocks of wheat, oats, barley,
rye and flaxseed iri Canada on March
31 last were in each case lower than
at the corresponding date a year
Ago, according to a crop report issued
by the Dominion bureau of statistics.
The ,wheat stocks wero, approxi-
mately. 36,900,000 bushels lower, or
12 per cent.
Oats were 51,900,000 bushels lower
or 33 per cent.; barley; 5,600,000
bushels of 19 per cent.; rye, 2,500,000
or 35 per cént.; , flaxseed, 1,200,000
bushels or 64 per cent.
The report adds:
“Stocks of rye and flaxseed are
particularly low in comparison with
past years. The main decreases in
grain stocks are shown in the quan-
tities held by farmers. The décrease
in grain stocks compared with
March, 1933, figures is less than the
decrease in production last fall be-
cause of large carry-overs and lower
domestic use and export.
As a result of the unfavorable
summer and autumn weather on the
prairie provinces last year, the un-
merchantable per centages of the
principal grains, excepting flaxseed,
were higher than in 1932-33.
A preliminary estimate of the
amount of wheat fed to livestock
and poultry in the crop season, 1933-
34, is 16,982,000 bushels compared
with a final estimate of 21,996,000
bushels in 1932-33.
Total quantity of oats in Canada
on March 31, 1934, was estimated at
107,520,068 bushels, against 159,458,-
405 bushels at the same date in 1933
the total for 1934 comprising 17;201,-
646 bushels in elevators and flour
mills, 89,269,000 bushels in farmers’
hands and 1,049,422 bushels in tran-
sit by rail. A
Total quantity of barley in Caned:
on March 81, 1934, was estimated at
24,224,788 bushels, as against 29,792,-
904 bushels in 1933. This year's total
included 10,584,807 bushels in ele-
vators and flour mills, 13,384,000
bushels in farmers’ hands, and 285,-
981 bushels in transit by rail.
Business In Babylon
Record Of Everything Was Kept On
Clay Tablets -
Babylonian . business: was. efficient.
‘There are numerous receipts among
the clay tablets. If a man brought
in animal hides a receipt was writ-
ten out. If a man on the temple
payroll was given oil or dates from
the storehouse, it called for a writ-
ten notation by a bookkeeper-scribe.
There were bank cheques on clay,
too, or the Babylonian equivalent.
One of these orders to pay reads:
“Two shekels of~ silver to Nerga-
lasharid give,” and the date is add-
ed. The temple had its hand in many
lines of business, Not only did it
take in goods and silver brought for
religious offerings, ‘but it’ collected
food and revenue for the king's per-
sonal. tse, It supported a brick
making industry for its building en-
terprise. It rented a ship, one record
shows, from a Babylonian for so
much silver and barley a month.
Having much valuable property, the
temple had to employ armed guards.
One record specifies the duty to
which certain bowmen were to be de-
tailed: Soldiers were sent by the
temple on distant missions, for there
is a notation of four men being
equipped for a journey to the far-
away city of Tyre. Reports of work
done, itemized receipts, legal con-
tracts—all these documents are >
found in the efficient office records
of. Babylonian institution, five and
six hundred years before Christ...

But German Spy'’s Work Made Vimy
Ridge Capture More Difficult
Seventeen years after the battle,
it: was disclosed at Montreal that the
Canadian capture of Vimy Ridge, in
April, 1917, an engagement’ that
stands out in the Dominion’s military
annals, was made more difficult by
the successful efforts of a German
spy to secure and pass along to his
Superiors details of the plans of
Canadian headquarters.
Col. Wilfrid Bovey, in those days
attached to the staff of the late Gen-
eral Sir Arthur Currie, commander+
in-chief of the Canadian Cotps in
France, and now director of the de-
partment of extra-mural relations,
McGil® University, revealed this bit
of history in a public address re-
cently.
The spy joined the Canadian forces
with a tale that he was from Texas.
Hig story sounded convincing and
the man proved to be a good soldier.
He won his sergeant’s stripes and
was in a position to pick up con-
siderable information. Subsequent
events showed he had obtained in-
formation, however, to which no
ordinary sergeant could bave had
access.
Five days before the important en-
gagement at Vimy Ridge, the man
disappeared. There had been no trace
of him since that Col. Bovey knew
about, but in .captured German
trenches was found a manuscript ac-
count of an interview he had given
German officers. Its details were ex-
traordinary correct, Col. Bovey said,
the. German knowing when and
where the Canadian attack would be
made, the route Canadian tanks
would take and many other features
of the corps’ plans.
While the immediate result was
not affected, Col. Bovey said, the
task was harder than had been ex-
pected, the Germans: being prepared
to put up a good defence. The spy’s
work “cost us a great many casual-
ties.”
Discovery May Be Valuable
Convict Claims Method For Extract-
ing Hydrogen From Water
In the state prison of California a
convict announcéd he had discovered
a method ‘for extracting hydrogen
from water and industrial experts
watched a demonstration. Common
tap water, sulphurie acid and several
other well-known chemicals were
weighed out and mixed in the pres-
ence of the observers.
Then, after the manner of the
stage juggler and the spiritualistic
medium, the demonstrator pulled a
screen in front of his equipment.
When he came into the open again
he produced 47 cubic centimetres of
hydrogen through application of .7
of a volt of electrical.energy. By
the new process, he said, an automo-
bile gould be driven by hydrogen for

OCCASIONAL WIFE
EDNA ROBB WEBSTER
Author ot: “Joretta,” ‘Lipstick
Girl” Etc.
The hours dragged like days, her
work lost its fascination and she
scarcely tasted food. She maintained
a subterfuge of cheerfulness at the
office, but Rose” perceived instantly
that Cainilla was grieving. It was
about Peter, she guessed. Men always
were the cause of .women's deepest
grief, she had observed. From any
other sorrow, a woman recovered and
somehow managed a substitute; but
for the loss of a Jove, which tran-
ascended everything else in life, there
was no compensation.
Rose ‘voiced something of this
philosophy when, on the second eve-
ning of Camilla’s egtrangement from
Peter, they were tidying their apart-
ment after dinner. The windows were
open to the warm autumn breeze
and from all directions across the
open court the strident blare of radio
music drifted in. Always ‘such a
variety of stations were turned in
that the effect was like the sound of
the tongues of Babylofi: jazz bands,
crooners, symphonic airs, high so-
prano voices and deep bass, orators
holding forth, announcers cutting in,
time signals,
Usually, the jazz bands and the
crooners predominated. Their voices
lamented and sighed and exulted, but
always their subject was love. Their
tragic words taunted Camilla, their
triumphant phrases mocked her.
Love—love—love. Was that all any-
one thought of and lived for? -Per-
haps it was. Love was the beginning
and the end of all things. It was the
reason for which one lived and the
urge which gave life reason. But the
yearning voices of radio singers did
not thrill her. Only Peter’s voice
could do that. She closed the win-
dows with irritable bangs, trying to
shut out those insistent reminders of
her shattered romance, —
“Isn't it silly the way women get
sentimental over the radio crooners
wh*m they never see, and listen for
their voices like young girls waiting
for their dates to telephone? Age,
color and language make no differ-
ence. I'll bet all the radios tuned in
to that kind of stuff have women
listeners. Men listen to sports and
speeches. They don’t get silly over
some woman's voice and make a
personal interest. Why do women?”
“Oh, I. dunno,” Rose observed.
“That's about the only way most
of them can get their quota of ro-
mance, Take it by and large, men
are pretty rotten -about*love. Most
of them don't want it for a monoto-
hous diet, fewer of them appreciate
it when they do get it, and there's
darn few of them ever recognize it.
“Love doesn’t mean everlasting ro-
mance to a man, and that’s all a
woman thinks love is; until she gets
a jolt of disillusion. Even.,then, it
doesn’t always take, the first time.
She goes on dreaming until she gets
hit so hard it almost kills her. Some
never recover, and go through the
rest of their lives with their emo-
SYNOPSIS
Camilla Hoyt and Peter Anson,
young and in love, marry secretly,
deciding to live their own lives apart
until Peter is able to provide for her.
Peter is a young, struggling sculptor
trying to win a competition for a
larship abroad and Camila is the
adopted daughter of a wealthy fam-
fly. She is not to inherit money
when she comes of age and. so is
studving commercial art in the hope
of landing an agency job. Others in
the story are Avis Werth, another
wealthy girl who is trving to win
Peter, Sylvia Todd, Peter’s model,
and Gus Matson, his former room-
mate with whom he has quarrelled.
At a party at an exclusive club
‘entertains Camilla’s guests
impersonations. Then the rest
of the members of the party go to
.8 Cabaret to continue the gaiety,
Peter and Camilla slip off to the
beach: by themselves and fall asleep
on and. When they awake it is
early morning and Avis and another
boy are standing hear them. This
makes it necessary for Camilla to an-
nounce before the party that she and.
Peter are married. Bowman and
Weeks, an advertising agency, where
Camilla has. submitted some of her
work, send for her and offer her
4 salary of $50.00 a week to start
ene a prospect of having it doubled.

fortune in securing employment. Mrs:
Hoyt is also informed that Camilla
has obtained work and is going to

“Then, I guess there are a few
men, scarce as icicles on a radiator,
who love and adbre qnd cherish one
woman all their days, and look nei-
there to the right nor left of then.
Pretty girls.and clever women, leave
them cold, and the wife is a goddess
on a pedestal. You can just bet there
aren't many like that.”
Camilla smiled. “I think your
classifications apply to all kinds of
people. But how do you know so
much abouf it?”
. “By keeping my eyes and ears
open, I've always had to fight and
work and think for myself. And
you can't win out alone and handi-
capped unless you know people—men
and women, all kinds. Take Pa, for
example. He was in the second class.
A woman was a habit with him.
Your old man, Alexander Hoyt is the
Same, though the two men are no
more alike any other way than night
and day.
“Young Dawson, at the office, is in
class one—and how!" She made a
wry face and continued. “He may
change later on, and be like his dad.
He's in class three—sets his wife
and his reputation up on a throne,
but he slips down and plays around
with the boys and girls when he
gets a chance. |
“Do you know any men in that
exclusive fourth class?” ©*
“Just two in my _ experience.
Funny, too, they are as different as
Pa and Mr. Hoyt, There's. Mr, Ob-
latz, up our street, who worships his
wife, Anna, like a saint and \treats
her like a princess, - Of course, he
can’t give her everything a princess
has—it’s the way he does what he
can for her. Every night, when he
comes home, he looks and acts as
if\he were coming to call on her for
the first time, and he is always doing
nice little things to make her happy.
It's the same with Mr. Perdue, at
the office, except he is more refined
and elegant about it. Men like that
are just pure gold, but I never hope
to get one of them: It’s about like
winning a lottery where half a mil-
lion tickets are sold.”
“If you know so much about ana-
lyzing men, Rose, in which’ class is
—Peter?” She spoke his name al-
most in a whisper, as if with appre-
-hension.
“Don’t you know?” Rose evaded.
T hadn't thought much about it,
until—” she stopped, and sighed.
“You and Peter have quarreled,
haven't you?” Rose asked gently. “I

“But—but, Rose, don’t you believe

scends everything else in life? Can't
men be sincere about love?”
“Darn few of 'em can for more

and among girls ‘like me and in

stopped to rémove a dozen pins from
her mouth, in the process of short-

“Well, there are the men who
‘never are sincere in their relation to
women. They don’t know any more
about love than they do about the
people who live in another world.
Every woman who attracts ‘them is a
new conquest—-until they get her ini-

affairs, Peter went to Camilla with
contrition and appeal. =;
But that two-day interim of si-
tence had been a century for Camilla.
She had gone over every word they

of justice withheld her.. She knew
that, actually, she had said nothing
for which to be forgiven, Rather, it
was Peter who had been in the
wrong. Evon if he would not let her

Many of the little intimate things

antiques who has ‘dealt with Russia
for years.
Among

THE RHYMING
~ OPTIMIST
By Aline Michaelis
Is-any other thi on earth
As beautiful as light,
As nearly kin to song and mirth,
As tuned to heart's delight?
“Let there be light,” and at God's
word
A flash of glory came,
While all the universe was stirred
With primal dawning’s flame.
Is any other thing at all
As wonderful as light?
Before it, swiftly backward fall
The legions of the night.
O, light, T lift my being’s cup;
Flood me too full ‘for doubt, ~
With love and gladness brim me up,
Shine all the evil out!
